MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. AFTER the

Cleveland and party were driven to
Schlisz park where a public reception
was held. Nearly 10, 900 persons shook
hands with the president. The grounds
were finely draped with bunting and the
platform where the chief executive stood
was beautifully draped with tropical
flowers and foliage. The arrangements
were perfect at the reception, the crowd
passing after saluting the president out
OIL the grounds at a rapid rate. At 6
O'Clock Mrs. Cleveland was rendered a
supper at the residence of Mrs. j. Nit
chell who presided as hostess, assisted by
only a dozen of Miiwaukee's most prom
inent society ladies. The affair was one
OF the most elegant and artistic aver
witnessed in the city. The supper was
intended to afford Mrs. Cleveland a much
needed rest after the trip from Chicago.
AT 1880 carriages were taken and the en-
tire party drove to the residence of
James Kneeland where a formal recep-

English Opinion Against Eviction.

LONDON, Oct. THE government has
ordered the suspension of the Gwedore
evictions in consequence of the discovery
that English public opinion is decidedly
opposed to them, This feeling has been
greatly strengthened by the fact that the
police so unhesitatipgly threw down their
rifles and declared that they would take
no further part in work of such unneces-
gary brutal methods and the government
besides wishing to avoid attempting to
stem the strong current of popular
opinion became fearful that the detection
in the ranks of the police might spread to
the proportion beyond control. The days
of brutal eviction in Ireland would seem
to be drawing very near to an emu.

he appeared in fighting costume in readi-

tatofs who had manifestly moderated

fighting in every round and in the wind

time socialism had nothing in common
with anarchy and according to Webster's
definition the principles of the order
were socialistic and he would ask for no
better or exalted form of socialism. The
speaker severely criticised the practice
OF lobbying in connection with the

much as they pleased, and he admitted
that there were MANY things in it that
